Re: [MW:27227] Why high stress developed in P_91 materials

By Materials & Welding
comment by c c girotra
The p91 grade materail is high cr amd mo alloyed steel and these elements cause air hardeing and by corollary also increase tensile strength  hence stresses are bound to be there. It is 90,000psi class material.CR and Mo help resist oxidation resistance at high temp and creep resistance.

Plain carbon steel has no alloying/ no air hardening material and has uts of 60,000 to 70,000 psi only.(42kg/mm2--52kg/mm2)

Thermal expansion of P91 steel is higher than carbon steel and one of the reason for increased stresses.
Thermal conductivity of P91 steel is lesser than Carbon steel and may be reason for slow cooling.

Normally, P91 steel will of Higher Thickness than Carbon steel and that will be one of the reasons for Higher stresses.

Microstructure will be Martensite after welding and which will be further Tempered to obtain Tempered Martensite.

Dear Expert 

Please tell me why high  stress developed  in P_91 materials then carbon steel, 

Metallurgical point of view, what is changes in structure. 

Regard

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

By Materials & Welding
Introduction The colour formed when stainless steel is heated, either in a furnace application or in the heat affected zone of welds, is dependent on several factors that are related to the oxidation resistance of the steel. The heat tint or temper colour formed is caused by the progressive thickening of the surface oxide layer and so, as temperature is increased, the colours change.   Oxidation resistance of stainless steels However, there are several factors that affect the degree of colour change and so there is no a single table of colour and temperature that represents all cases. The colours formed can only be used as an indication of the temperature to which the steel has been heated. Factors affecting the heat tint colours formed Steel composition The chromium content is the most important single factor affecting oxidation resistance. The higher the chromium, the more heat resistant the steel and so the development of the heat tint colou...
